The Myopic old optician couldn’t see how he would fail The baker stayed too long and ended moulderin’ and stale The vets been put to sleep, it’s sad, they’re empty for a year. The barbers’ blades are blunted now but we’re still here. We’re still here. We watched the florist wilt and wane and wither into dust The bank was in the red, lost all its savin’s and went bust At the bookies all the bets are off, the winner is unclear And the pharmacy has overdosed but we’re still here, We’re still here.
The street ran out of charity so Oxfam’s doors are closed The surgery was euthanised as soon as diagnosed The letting agents lost their lease their rent was in arrears And the jewellers’ lost its sparkles now but we’re still here. We’re still here. They used to sell cool trainers but their custom ran away The travel agent’s taken an extended holiday Even the old Job Centre now seeks a new career The greengrocer decayed and spoiled but we’re still here. We’re still here. The tea-rooms fortune floundered once it gave us diahorrea And the chain store’s polished off the independent pizzeria The home designer’s showroom died behind that cracked veneer The bookshop’s long been out of print but we’re still here. We’re still here. The undertakers passed away, their ghosts still haunt the street The butcher decomposed like all his putrid rottern meet The chippy fried, the laundrette dried, the boozer’s sunk its beer The electrician’s blown a fuse, but we’re still here. We’re still here. (We’re still here)
Un peu de distraction
Chaleureuse et moite
Pour vous
Vous formez un amas indiscernable de distraction
Pour moi
Et cet amas doit se mettre a bouger
Distraction vous sera apportée
Maintenant
Je sens que vous bougez
Maintenant jai des disques a vendre
A acheter
Plutot a acheter qu’à vendre
Je vous dis clairement pourquoi vous devez les acheter
C’est que si vous ne les achetez pas personne d’autre ne le fera pour vous
Certainement pas moi
Et si vous ne les achetez pas
La distraction
Prend fin
Notre ami Jean-Charles est mort. On, c’est collectif, fait un festival en sa mémoire chez Treize, à Paris ville où il ne vivait plus et, nous, sommes encore là. On reprend le nom de soirées mémorables qu’il organisait, ce sera donc le French Deposit Festival.

We are proud to distribute Leighton’s new lp “Logical Descent” as part of our selective distro!
because this is a limited pressing of 155 that was done in Australia and customs duty has been applied and everything it has a slight higher price than our usual releases. Sorry about that, can’t really help it!
But to compensate a bit we are offering his previous LP, “Diamond Eye”, at a reduced price of only 10 euros!
OUI ce qui veut dire
que nous sommes en soldes
sur toutes les anciennes sorties il y a 20% de reduction
si
c’est jusqu’au 28 Février et il faut
indiquer le nom de ce coupon, à la fin
vous verrez
bien
mais nous avons aussi sorti 2 disques cette année
un album de Center (Stefan Christensen, Ian McColm, et Dave Shapiro) qui pourrait être le power trio le plus tendu et réservé du genre, ou bien autre chose sur “over the stations” et puis
le nouveau disque d’equipment pointed ankh “from inside the house” qui moi me fait penser à cassiber
car il faut toujours dire
à quoi l’on pense
2023, donc
et le nouvel album de kitchen’s floor, est là aussi
“none of that”, on ne remercie pas les douanes
au passage
quelques conclusions
à tirer
rendez-vous dans la rue!
toujours, avec vos briques
The always great FREE FORM FREAKOUT radio show chose to play The Submissives “Wanna be your thing” track on this week’s radio show at KMSU. “Check that one out!” says our host who haptly segued it between Treasury of puppies and Warm currency.
and they have reviewed out last two records, comparing the Zusammen Clark to Luna or the Pastels and The Submissives to the Shaggs and Cate Le Bon, which is really alright by me!
